Formatting your writing
Concepts and segments use the same rich-text editor. Let's try a little emphasis and a heading in the scene.
Select a little text
In Alasdair - Chapter II, select peaceful life in the excerpt and choose italic from the selection menu. Click back into the paragraph to carry on.
You can use the fixed toolbar instead if you've enabled it. Bold and italic also have shortcuts: Ctrl/CmdB and Ctrl/CmdI. Press again to stop applying the style to new text.
Use the slash menu
Type / at the start of a paragraph or after a space to open the command menu. Keep typing to filter, use ↑ / ↓ to move through results, and press Enter to choose. Escape closes it.
At the end of the excerpt, start a new paragraph. Try /heading, choose Heading 2, and type Practice heading. You'll also find lists, tables, images, saved blocks, and external links in the menu.
Once you've tried it, undo the practice heading and its extra paragraph so the segment contains just the excerpt again.
Give headings a purpose
Headings divide the document into sections and appear in its document outline. The segment already has a title, so you don't need to repeat it at the start of the prose.
For a scene within a chapter, a body heading may be enough. If you want to move that scene around separately, give it its own segment.
Keep planning material out of the prose
A list can help you plan, but our reminder to check Alasdair's route belongs in a note. Keep it there so it doesn't make an unexpected appearance in the book.
Undo a change
Use Ctrl/CmdZ to undo an edit. If the text only looks too wide or too small, adjust editor appearance instead.
